Depends what you mean by 'nesting statements'.

It would be monstrously inefficient to use pipes to edit individual lines even in shell.

There is nothing stopping you from simply editing the data as much as you please inside a loop however.

NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusualDelimiters - Use only "//" or "{}" to delimit regexps. AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION
Perl lets you delimit regular expressions with almost any character, but most choices are illegible. Compare these equivalent expressions: s/foo/bar/; # good s{foo}{bar}; # good s#foo#bar#; # bad s;foo;bar;; # worse s||||||; # eye-gouging bad CONFIGURATION
There is one option for this policy, "allow_all_brackets". If this is true, then, in addition to allowing "//" and "{}", the other matched pairs of "()", "[]", and "<>" are allowed. CREDITS
Initial development of this policy was supported by a grant from the Perl Foundation. AUTHOR
